My quick tutorial on it is now available again! Made it private by accident.

I can only say it works in win7 pro. I don't use my win 10 pro so I don't think I did more than install truespace set to a compatibility mode. vista maybe. I don't remember.

This is the OS that was used to program/compile Beta 8

this is how I see this working. Make your first object invisible if need be then parent on the other items you want to animate as well. I couldn't find Splinters motorcycle so the tricycle will have to do then an un-posed crazy bob riding into the sunset..just image it I took more than a few minutes to set this up.All the things you could animate by parenting them on for the ride.

Here a proxy for TrueBlue is down at the beach on his poorly made surf board. Hang ten bro..shaa

Wipe out..a moment later the surf got rough.. The animating ideas are endless.. but my animation skills are not.. I just need to get banking added then you can sway from side to side or the g forces on that trike could be there as it turns..

Yahooooo, no Object flipping on my first try!

I think I discovered why, initially, the move tools have not been working for me
When you use Save to List, you have to press your Enter key after selecting from the list
I have been doing that previously, but also you have to do the same thing after using the Loader button
Modifying the "name" text control by checking "Update on Change" makes it work better

Update on Change.png

Maybe I unconnected the index its easy to happen, will check it out
found what it was. some how a line got deleted and the index was now in an 'if else' causing it to say its not there. The swapping matrix code was missing the else part.

Here are those changes including the update on change for name.
